12.     Additional Services

12.1      Conversion Services

If Client orders Conversion Services pursuant to an Order Form, Client hereby engages and authorizes Us to charge You for scanning, imaging, organizing and/or indexing services in connection with Client’s logbooks, maintenance records, documents, media, electronic or digital images and other records (collectively the “Records”). The scope of Conversion Services will be set forth in the Order Form(s).

Upon completion of the Conversion Services, Bluetail shall deliver the original Records back to Client. Any criteria for acceptance of Conversion Services are set forth within the Order Form. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Order Form, satisfactory completion and acceptance of any Conversion Services shall be deemed to have been delivered and accepted by Client if Client does not object in writing to such Conversion Services within 30 days of receipt by Client.

Upon completion of the Conversion Services, Client may access the electronic copy of the Conversion Services Records through Bluetail’s SaaS records management application subject to the terms and conditions for access applicable thereto.

12.2    Records and Performance

12.2.1     Client shall not at any time provide to Bluetail any Records that would attract insects or vermin, are highly flammable, explosive, toxic, radioactive, dangerous or illegal to possess or store, or that are otherwise deemed by Bluetail, in its sole discretion, to represent a hazard (“Prohibited Materials”). Bluetail reserves the right, but is not obligated, to inspect any Records and may refuse to accept and/or remove and redeliver to Client any Prohibited Materials at Client’s cost.

12.2.2    Client acknowledges that Bluetail carries Records transportation insurance in the maximum amount of $100,000 in the event of lost or damaged Records, provided, however, that in connection with any Records transportation services, Bluetail is not and shall not be deemed a contract or common carrier for any purpose. The pricing, valuation and liability provisions of this Agreement reflect that status. In the event a third party common carrier is used to transport any Records, said carrier and not Bluetail shall be solely responsible for loss or damage to such Records or materials while in the carrier’s possession.

12.2.3    Bluetail may subcontract all or part of its obligations under this Agreement to any of its third party network partners to perform all or part of the Conversion Services or Services (each a “Subcontractor”). Bluetail shall be liable for the acts of Bluetail Subcontractors to the same extent as if Bluetail directly performed the obligations under the Agreement.

12.2.4    Itemized lists or descriptions of contents of Records submitted to Bluetail shall be considered for Client’s recordkeeping and reference purposes only and shall not be considered proof that any documents referenced in such lists or descriptions are in fact included in the Records serviced by Bluetail.

12.2.5    Client agrees that any failure or delay in Bluetail transporting Records or providing Conversion Services within a reasonable period of time shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or a conversion of goods, nor subject Bluetail to any liability, when such failure or delay results directly or indirectly from any act of God (earthquakes, floods, fires, pandemics, etc.), communication or power system failures, labor disputes, unusual traffic delays or other reasons beyond Bluetail’s reasonable control. 

13.    API Terms

You may access your Bluetail account data using the Bluetail API (Application Programming Interface). Any use of the API, including use of the API through a third-party product that accesses Bluetail, is bound by these Terms.

You expressly understand and agree that we shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses (even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages) resulting from your use of the API or third-party products that access your data via the API.

Abuse or excessively frequent requests to Bluetail via the API may result in the temporary or permanent suspension of your access to the API. We may, at our sole discretion, determine abuse or excessive usage of the API. We reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, your access to the API (or any part thereof) with or without notice.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any and all demands, loss, liability, claims or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) made against us by any third party due to or arising out of or in connection with your use of Bluetail.

15. Representations and Warranties

Client represents and warrants that: (A) it is the owner or legal custodian of all Records, and has full authority without any restrictions, to make decisions regarding Conversion Services to said Records; (B) none of its Records require protection from foreign persons because they contain technical information regarding defense articles and services within the meaning of ITAR/EAR, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, or technical data within the meaning of the Export Administration Regulations, and if any Records do contain such information, Client shall notify Bluetail of the specific Records that contain such information and acknowledges that special rates shall apply thereto; and (C) unless Client has informed Bluetail in writing otherwise, neither Client nor its Records are subject to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Client hereby releases and will indemnify and hold harmless Bluetail from any costs arising from or relating to the breach of Client’s representations and warranties in this Paragraph.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you assume full responsibility for and we disclaim liability to you for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, or punitive damages, including lost profits, even if we had been advised of the possibility of such damages.

We disclaim any and all liability for the acts, omissions, and conduct of any third parties related to your use of Bluetail and any linked sites and services. Your sole remedy against us for dissatisfaction with Bluetail is to stop using Bluetail. This limitation of relief is a part of the bargain between you and us. The preceding disclaimer applies to any damages, liability, or injuries whether for breach of contract, tort, negligence or any other cause of action.

Conversion Services Declaration Valuation: Client declares the value of all Records to be (i) $1.00 per box, carton, linear foot of open shelf files or other hard copy storage unit (or gigabyte of electronic Records) or (ii) the actual replacement cost for the physical media with respect to electronic storage media or other non-paper media.

Conversion Services; Stored Records and Media: Bluetail and Bluetail Subcontractors shall not be liable for any loss or damage to Records, however caused, unless such loss or damage results from a failure by Bluetail or Bluetail Subcontractors to exercise that care that a reasonably careful person would exercise under like circumstances, in which case Bluetail and Bluetail Subcontractor’s liability, if any, for such loss or damage to Records shall not exceed the valuation in Paragraph 16 above. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Bluetail and Bluetail Subcontractors are not liable or responsible for (i) loss or damage arising from Acts of God, casualty, labor disturbances, any governmental act or other cause beyond its reasonable control, or (ii) the repair, replacement or restoration of lost or damaged Records, images, data, or other property. Records are not insured by Bluetail against loss, damage or destruction, however caused. Client must insure all Records at its own expense. Client shall cause such insurers of Records to waive any right of subrogation or any other method of recovery against Bluetail and Bluetail Subcontractors.

If, notwithstanding the other provisions of the Terms, we are found to be liable to you for any damage or loss which arises out of or is in any way connected with your use of the Website or any of our Services, our liability shall not exceed what you paid us for the Services in the previous month. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations of liability, so the foregoing limitation may not apply to you.

17. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution

You agree that all matters relating to your access to or use of Bluetail, including all disputes, will be governed by the laws of the United States and by the laws of the State of Arizona without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions. You agree to the personal jurisdiction by and venue in the state and federal courts in Maricopa County, Arizona, and waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue. Any claim under these Terms of Use must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arises, or such claim or cause of action is barred.

No recovery may be sought or received for damages other than out-of-pocket expenses, except that the prevailing party will be entitled to costs and attorneys’ fees. In the event of any controversy or dispute between us and you arising out of or in connection with your use of the Websites, Services or Additional Services or, the parties shall attempt, promptly and in good faith, to resolve any such dispute. If we are unable to resolve any such dispute within a reasonable time (not to exceed thirty (30) days), then either party may submit such controversy or dispute to mediation. If the dispute cannot be resolved through mediation, then the parties shall be free to pursue any right or remedy available to them under applicable law.

18. Force Majeure

You agree that we are not liable for any delays or failure in performance of any part of the Services, from any cause beyond our control.

19. Severability

If one or more sections of the Terms are held unenforceable, then those sections will be removed or edited as little as necessary, and the rest of the Terms will still be valid and enforceable.

20. Assignments

You may not assign any of your rights under this agreement to anyone else. We may assign our rights to any other individual or entity at our discretion.

21. No Waiver

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

22. Entire Agreement

These Terms and all documents incorporated into these Terms by reference constitute the entire agreement between you and us and govern your use of Bluetail, superseding any prior agreements between you and us (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service). In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the provisions of another agreement between the parties, the provisions of such other agreement shall prevail and govern the relationship of the parties.

23. Amendments and Changes to Bluetail

Amendments or changes to these Terms won’t be effective until we post revised Terms on the Website.
